Dalai Lama was in Brussels to give evidence at a hearing held by the Political Affairs Committee into human rights in Tibet. "Yes. I am Dalai Lama, not come through election, not come through mysterious things. So you see, last April, I made a suggestion to the Chinese government, to the Chinese embassy in New Delhi, in order to remove this obstacle. I'm preparing to send a few people to Hong Kong to meet some Chinese representative there. So you see if Chinese site show a conciliatory attitude towards Tibetan then we Tibetan respond accordingly."

In February, the European Parliament established a temporary committee to "study the impact of the German unification process on the European Community." Alan John Donnelly (UK, S) is designated as rapporteur at the first meeting on 1 March 1990. Gerardo Fernández-Albor (SP, EPP) was the President of the committee and as Vice-President were designated Simone Veil (FR, LDR) and Kirsten Jensen (DK, S). The temporary committee duties are performed over nine months between March and December 1990. During this period, it is somehow the "hub" of all parliamentary activities on German unification.

November 1989 marks the beginning of the Velvet Revolution which led to the end of the Communist regime in Czechoslovakia. Vaclav Havel is the personification of this uprising and the reunification of Europe. During a formal sitting in 2001, he expressed his feelings about being European “I was so obviously and naturally European that I did not even think about it. And I am sure that applies to the majority of Europeans. They are profoundly European but they are not even aware of it.”
